No longer making time

Fall and things

The past few days have gone by in a rush. The holiday season is fast-approaching. We seem to be hurtling on towards the end of the year. There is just not enough time to do anything!

So….. we’re at the end of the month. It’s Halloween today, followed by All Saints day and I am also mourning a loss I’d had a couple of years back. It has definitely been heavy but in a very strange way, it is also helping me look ahead and towards more positive happenings.

I recently discovered Slowdive’s “No Longer Making Time” and don’t think I can ever go back! It is life changing, this music. It sums up how I feel - contemplative and racing against time but at a standstill at the same time, not quite understanding what it means and where it is all heading.

I have now completed a month of being dairy-free and I like it. It is so empowering to not feel the urge to pig out on desserts and feel crummy afterwards. Overall I feel lighter and nicer, more like my personality is slowly starting to emerge and poke through the fog. It is exciting in a way.

Here are the lyrics to the song, and they are rather dark and fitting for this Halloween day and my state of mind.

No Longer Making Time by Slowdive

Come anyway

Say you're clean, you like it that way

You got a new boy

He keeps it light, you like it that way

Who cares anyway

Oh lord I remember the days

And all those nights

When you wanted so much more

Cathy, don't wait too long

We're no longer making time

Forever we'll be

Together, we breathe

No longer for too run

Come anyway

Come on down in your

Blue eyed way

Comes and it goes

You come around and I don't know why

Just lovers and life

Common ground, Yeah there's no surprise

Just holding your arms

Holding on…
